District Meeting Will Be Held
to Pledge Full Support of
President Roosevelt’s Na-
tional Recovery Program.
Nacogdoches, • July 26.—
Full support of President
Roosevelt’s emergency re-em-
ployment drive will be sought
in a district meeting of the
East Texas Chamber of Com-
merce here Thursday, A'J rust
10, at two o’clock.
Reminiscent of the drives of
World War days will be the
nation-wide effort to increase
employment and to raise pur-
chasing power. All employers
of labor are asked to subscribe
to a blanket code. Maximum
hours and maximum wages are
fixed in this code. A pledge
against profiteering is includ-
ed. Consumers will be asked
to patronize only those busi-
nesses that adhere to the new
blanket code. The President
is depending on the force of
opinion of good citizens to
make the plan succeed.
The necessity for such a
code and its terms will be ex-
plained at the Nacogdoches
meeting by President E. L.
Kurth and General Manager
Hubert 31. Harrison of the East
Texas Chamber.
Codes of fair competition
for retailers and wholesalers
will be discussed. The appar-
ent s*nfllct-bctween the~~N*“
tionai Industrial Recovery Act
and the Texas antitrust laws
will also be considered.
Leagues of saner competition
will be discussed.
Business leaders and public
officials from the following
counties will attend: Panola,
Henderson, Smith, Rusk, An-
derson, Cherokee, Shelby, San
Augustine, Houston, Nacogdo-
ches and Sabine.
Don’t forget you are wel-

CK III PUCE OF COFFIII
College Station, July 25.—
An attractive farm land menu
of late feed crops to take the
place of retired cotton acres
and to make good what now
appears to be a shortage of
feed in Texas is suggested by
E. A. Miller, agronomist in the
Texas Extension Service. For,
plantings as late as the first of
August he names the grain
sorghums • for grain and
forage; Sudan grass for graz-
ing and hay; red top sorghum
for hsy or bundled forage;
cowpeas for hay or grazing;
millet for hay; and stock beets
for succulent feed
Except in Northwest Texas
the grain sorghums have a
good chance to make grain if
planted by August first. In
case of early frost they will
provide good forage when har-
vested in bundles and cured in
6hock, or they can be put into
silos. Hegari, darso and
shrock kafir are well adapted
for the eastern half of Texas,
including b’ackland and South
Texas. To save time, seed may
be planted in cotton middles,
even before cotton has been
destroyed. From 3 to 3 pounds
of seed is required per acre,
and if moisture is scarce plant-
ing i?: 6-foot row is recom-
mended.
Sudan planted in 3-foot
ro’vs at the rate .of 10 pounds
of seed per acre is suggested.
This also may be done before
cotton is destroyed.
Red top sorghum may be
planted for bundle stuff jn 3-
foot rows at the rate of 10
pounds of seed per acre, or
broadcast for hay at the rate
of 60 to 75 pounds of seed per
acre.
Cowpeas should i>e included
in late plantings, „ either for
hay or grazing or to be plowed
under for soil enrichment.
From 20 to 30 pounds of seed
are needed per acre. Good
varieties are Brabham, Iron,
Groit, New Era, Whippoorwill
and Chinese Red, wtih Crow-

German millet is a quick
maturing crop that is fairly
drouth resistant. It should bo
sown broadcast at the rate of
30 pounds per acre. It is im-
portant to cut millet for hay
right after blooming and it
should not be allowed to go to
seed, especially when fed to
horses and mules.

SURVET OF THE COTTON
ISTIITBTDII.il
Austin, Tex., July 26.—Cot-
ton takes the spot light on the
stage of rapidly moving world
affairs, Dr. A. B. Cox, Univer-
sity of Texas economist, points
out in his monthly survey of
the cotton industry. Dr. Cox,
who is director of the Univer-
sity Bureau of Business Re-
search, is an internationally
recognized authority on cot-
ton.
“A year ago, cotton con-
sumption in the United States
at this time was establishing a
record low for a generation—
whereas the rate of mill con-
sumption now In the United
States is establishing an ail
time record high,” he explain-
ed. "A year ago cotton prices
were making new reeord lows
and supplies of American cot-
ton were higher than ever be-
fore in history. Cotton prices
in dollars have a little more
than doubled since this time
last year, but supplies have de-
creased only about 10 pef
cent. The question being ask-
ed from all sides is what are
the causes of all these violent
changes, and at what level
and how wifi cotton values be
stabilized.
“The goal of the govern-
ment price raising scheme was
a farm price of about 12.4
cents on the basis of the 1909-
1914 price level. It is propos-
ed to put it there by one or all
of the following means:
Taking cotton out of produc-
tion or plowing up cotton, in-
flation or cheapening pf the
dollar, or by stimulating con-
sumption, or by a combination
of all three. The Federal Gov-
ernment ‘sign-up’ campaign to
take 10,090,009 acres of cot-
ton out of production is re-
ported a success. The Crop
Reporting Board’s estimate of
cotton in cultivation July 1
was 40,798,000 acres, or an in-
crease of 11.6 per cent. If 10,-

“Nothing can stop President
Roosevelt’s economic pro-
gram,” Hugh S. "Johnson, ad-
ministrator of national re-
recovery, told the nation Tues-
day, and at the same time he
estimated that between 5,000,-
000 and 6,000,000 workers
would be employed before La-
bor Pay.
Mr. Johnson’s message fol-
lowed that of President Roose-
velt’s twenty-four hours
earlier, in which the President
appealed to the nation for
support of the program.
From all sections of the na-
tion thousands of telegrams
have been pouring into the
White House pledging sup-
port, according to press re-
ports.
Austin, Tex., 24.—Dr. H. N.
Barnett, Director, Bureau of
Child Hygiene, State Depart-
ment of Health, in a state-
ment today, urged all parents
to have their children im-
munized against diphtheria.
Each child six months old or
over should have this preven-
tive treatment now as it takes
some time for immunity to de-
velop after the last inocula-
tion.
In the use of toxoid we
have an agent that will give
passive immunity to this dis-
ease; still 812 persons died
last year in Texas from diph-
theria. Two thirds of all cases
occur before the tenth yea*
and approximately eighty per
cent of the deaths from this
disease occur between the ages
one to five years. Our young
children are therefore in dan-
ger of contracting the disees#
and dying from it.
It is a treacherous disease.

them protected against diph-

This is a special appeal to
the parents of Texas. If you
have children between the
ages of six months and twelve
years, who have not been im-
munized against this dreadful
disease, have them protected
by. the injection of toxoid. Par-
ents who know that ft is now
possible to prevent diphtheria'
and nevertheless fail to have
their children immunized, take
a great responsibility on their
shoulders. The immunization
consists of two to three injec-
tions three to six weeks apart.
When prevention is so simple,
